Leibniz's essay on government
Theodicy Gottfried Wilhelm Von Leibniz 9781928565390 Books
I am a fan of Leibniz's philosophical work and I am systematically working through his major works. When I got to _Theodicy_, I bought this edition and I was quickly disappointed in the printing. Other reviews referred to an index, but my copy has none.There is a simple title page, no copyright page, no index, and no standard page numbers. The page numbers occur in brackets in-text throughout, but it is difficult to flip through to find a certain passage when you are forced to skim the text just to find a page number. For copyright information, the only information given in the actual book is the ISBN on the back cover, which makes academic citation difficult. Furthermore, Leibniz frequently quotes Greek and Latin in his arguments, but this edition does not translate these lines. I was only able to get the main idea of the quotes because I am proficient in Greek and adequate in Latin. Finally, there are typos throughout where (I believe) Japanese characters are printed in the middle of a word. This makes reading the text difficult in some places, since it is unclear how many English letters are missing. I can deal with the other problems of this edition, but unreadable text is too much of an issue.
To summarize, I highly recommend reading _Theodicy_, but I do not recommend reading this edition. This edition is practically a hard copy of the Kindle edition, which does not help an academic like myself.

Theodicy Gottfried Wilhelm Von Leibniz 9781928565390 Books Reviews
This edition suffers from 2 major problems
1) The index number in the back match neither the page numbers nor the section numbers.
2) The typeface is very thin and pale, poor choice of font. It looks like a very thin version of Courier.
I will return this book and buy a different edition by another publisher.
Too many untranslated passages in Greek and Latin that break up the flow of the book
excellent book highly recommended
Item as described. Delivery as promised.
Practically unreadable. Page numbers and endnotes would have been nice. Be mindful of the publisher before purchasing.
Thanks
Very interesting, Leibniz had a deep insight into the areas of philosophy and theology he discusses. He comes at the dawn of the Modern Age and I am glad that his voice is among those we remember for this time period.
